3.2.4 Sensor Controller
3.2.4.1 Paper Feeding/Width
When a paper passes an actuator of a feed sensor unit after feeding a paper into a set,it detects a signal of the photo interrupter and informs the paper feeding status to CPU. After sensing the signal and certain time later, it strews an image data.(Related in Paper Front Edge Adjustment) If it could not detect the feed sensor within 1 second after feeding a paper, a paper jam0 (CPU#_) occurs. Phaser 3117 differs from other general printers because it doesn’t have a paper empty sensor. It recognizes the paper existing status by using a firmware. If a paper is not fed, it recognizes the state as no paper (Red and Yellow lights turn on among other LEDs). With the same principle, it senses the OPC unit. After OPC unit is mounted,the actuator operates. When it passes the actuator of sensor unit, it detects the signal of the photo interrupter, informs the existing OPC unit to CPU, and then stays at the status.
3.2.4.2 Paper Empty Sensing
The paper empty is detected by the empty sensor mounted to an engine board and the actuator mounted to a frame. Paper senses the on/off time of the empty sensor by using CPU and informs the normal operation status and the jam occurrence status to CPU.
3.2.4.3 Jam Cover/Cover Open Sensing
Phaser 3117 uses two M/S:one senses the cover open and the other senses the jam cover open. The cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of HVPS.When the front cover is open, +24V supplied to each unit (DC fan,Solenoid,Main Motor,Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit,and HVPS)is interrupted. The jam cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of SMPS. When the jam cover is open, +24V supplied to each unit (DC fan, Solenoid, Main Motor, Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit, and HVPS) is interrupted. D0 bit of CPU detects the jam cover open/cover open, and D7 bit of CPU detects the existence of OPC. In this case, it informs the status to user by turning on the red LED among OP panel LEDs.
3.2.4.4 Solenoid Driving Circuit
The solenoid consists of two used for paper pick-up and MP signal. D4 bit of CPU turns it on/off, and its driving time is 300ms. The diode protects the drive TR from the pulse (noise)generated by de-energizing operation of solenoid.

3.2.7 FUSER AC POWER CONTROL
Fuser(HEAT LAMP) gets heat from AC power. The AV power controls the switch with the Triac, a semiconductor switch. The 'ON/OFF control' is operated when the gate of the Triac is turned on/off by Phototriac (insulting part). In other words, the AC control part is passive circuit, so it turns the heater on/off with taking signal from engine control part. When the 'HEATER ON' signal is turned on at engine, the LED of PC1 (Photo Triac) takes the voltage and flashes. From the flashing light, the Triac part (light receiving part) takes the voltage, and the voltage is supplied to the gate of Triac and flows into the Triac. As a result, the AC current flows in the heat lamp, and heat is occurred. On the other hand, when the signal is off, the PC1 is off, the voltage is cut off at the gate of Triac, the Triac becomes off, and then the heat lamp is turned off. 1) Triac (THY1) feature :16A, 600V SWITCHING 2) Phototriac Coupler (PC3) .

3.3 S/W Structure and Descriptions
The purpose of this document is to describe the design specification of the Engine Control F/W for the Phaser 3117.
3.3.1 Introduction
This Engine Control Firmware is a program that controls LBP Engine of the Phaser 3117. This firmware is executed every 10msec as an interrupt routine of the main system. At stand-by state, this firmware monitors the enable print command from the main system. If the enable print command is detected, this firmware controls the Engine Mechanism according to the printing process and paper feeding state. And with the Sleep command or Wake-Up command, this firmware controls the Engine state.
3.3.2 Engine Control F/W Overview
Engine Control F/W is executed every 10msec by timer interrupt of main system. And it consists of 3 control modules. - Engine Main Control, Interface Control and Sensing & Unit Control Module. Major operations of the Engine Control F/W are following. - Control the Pick-Up, Feeding and Discharging of Paper - Control the LSU - Control the HVPS for the Developer Process - Control the Temperature of Fixing unit Controlling selection to here is added. - Second Cassette Feeder(SCF) : N/A

System Overview
3.3.3 F/W Architecture of Engine Control Firmware
- The Engine Control Module is executed every 10msec as interrupt job of main system. There are three control modules, i.e., Engine Main Control Module, Engine Interface Module and Sensing & Unit Control Module. - Probably from usual state it will be able to rehabilitated a prior to entry error state in error condition it is to confirm. When the if rehabilitation is possible then after rehabilitating it goes back in usual state, else with an error condition it goes in error state. Currently the rehabilitation function of the low heat error , the over heat error and the LSU error is embodied. - Low Heat Error When the error occurrs, it does not indicate an error. It stores the present temperature and supplies the heat to the fixing unit during the scheduled time. If the temperature goes up after scheduled time, it goes back to a normal state. However, if not, it is formed that an error occurrs. - Over Heat Error When the error occurs, it informs an error first. It stores the present temperature as well and waits a scheduled time. If the temperature goes down after scheduled time, then it goes back to a normal state. However, if not, it is formed that an error occurrs. - Lsu Error When the error occurrs, it does not indicate an error. It accomplishes printing only again. If even time when it judges an error, it informs an error. Concretely speaking, if the LReady or Hsync error happens, the paper exits out beforehand. And then the engine mode is changed to recovery mode and the engine informs the main system of the engine mode. And the engine checks the LSU error in itself. If the error doesn’t happen, the printing job will be proceeding.
3.3.4 Engine Interface Module Design
Engine Interface Module communicates with the main system in order to receive the command from main system and to transmit the present engine status for the requested status. There are two sub functions. One is a function to receive the command from the main system. The other is a function that informs the main system of the current engine status for the requested item.
3.3.5 Engine Sensing & Unit Control Module Design
Engine Sensing & Unit Control Module consists of 4 sub-functions. The first function is an ADC function that reads the ADC values of the temperature of the fixing unit. The second one is a fixing unit control function. This function regulates the temperature of the fixing unit within a fixed range to be set by the paper type and the number of pages to print out. The third one is a fan control function that controls the fan unit. And the last one sets the flag that describes the present status of each sensor.

3.2.4 Sensor Controller
3.2.4.1 Paper Feeding/Width
When a paper passes an actuator of a feed sensor unit after feeding a paper into a set,it detects a signal of the photo interrupter and informs the paper feeding status to CPU. After sensing the signal and certain time later, it strews an image data.(Related in Paper Front Edge Adjustment) If it could not detect the feed sensor within 1 second after feeding a paper, a paper jam0 (CPU#_) occurs. Phaser 3117 differs from other general printers because it doesn’t have a paper empty sensor. It recognizes the paper existing status by using a firmware. If a paper is not fed, it recognizes the state as no paper (Red and Yellow lights turn on among other LEDs). With the same principle, it senses the OPC unit. After OPC unit is mounted,the actuator operates. When it passes the actuator of sensor unit, it detects the signal of the photo interrupter, informs the existing OPC unit to CPU, and then stays at the status.
3.2.4.2 Paper Empty Sensing
The paper empty is detected by the empty sensor mounted to an engine board and the actuator mounted to a frame. Paper senses the on/off time of the empty sensor by using CPU and informs the normal operation status and the jam occurrence status to CPU.
3.2.4.3 Jam Cover/Cover Open Sensing
Phaser 3117 uses two M/S:one senses the cover open and the other senses the jam cover open. The cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of HVPS.When the front cover is open, +24V supplied to each unit (DC fan,Solenoid,Main Motor,Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit,and HVPS)is interrupted. The jam cover open sensor is located on the left bottom of SMPS. When the jam cover is open, +24V supplied to each unit (DC fan, Solenoid, Main Motor, Polygon Motor Unit of LSU in Fusing Unit, and HVPS) is interrupted. D0 bit of CPU detects the jam cover open/cover open, and D7 bit of CPU detects the existence of OPC. In this case, it informs the status to user by turning on the red LED among OP panel LEDs.
3.2.4.4 Solenoid Driving Circuit
The solenoid consists of two used for paper pick-up and MP signal. D4 bit of CPU turns it on/off, and its driving time is 300ms. The diode protects the drive TR from the pulse (noise)generated by de-energizing operation of solenoid.

3.2.7 FUSER AC POWER CONTROL
Fuser(HEAT LAMP) gets heat from AC power. The AV power controls the switch with the Triac, a semiconductor switch. The 'ON/OFF control' is operated when the gate of the Triac is turned on/off by Phototriac (insulting part). In other words, the AC control part is passive circuit, so it turns the heater on/off with taking signal from engine control part. When the 'HEATER ON' signal is turned on at engine, the LED of PC1 (Photo Triac) takes the voltage and flashes. From the flashing light, the Triac part (light receiving part) takes the voltage, and the voltage is supplied to the gate of Triac and flows into the Triac. As a result, the AC current flows in the heat lamp, and heat is occurred. On the other hand, when the signal is off, the PC1 is off, the voltage is cut off at the gate of Triac, the Triac becomes off, and then the heat lamp is turned off. 1) Triac (THY1) feature :16A, 600V SWITCHING 2) Phototriac Coupler (PC3) .

3.3.3 F/W Architecture of Engine Control Firmware
- The Engine Control Module is executed every 10msec as interrupt job of main system. There are three control modules, i.e., Engine Main Control Module, Engine Interface Module and Sensing & Unit Control Module. - Probably from usual state it will be able to rehabilitated a prior to entry error state in error condition it is to confirm. When the if rehabilitation is possible then after rehabilitating it goes back in usual state, else with an error condition it goes in error state. Currently the rehabilitation function of the low heat error , the over heat error and the LSU error is embodied. - Low Heat Error When the error occurrs, it does not indicate an error. It stores the present temperature and supplies the heat to the fixing unit during the scheduled time. If the temperature goes up after scheduled time, it goes back to a normal state. However, if not, it is formed that an error occurrs. - Over Heat Error When the error occurs, it informs an error first. It stores the present temperature as well and waits a scheduled time. If the temperature goes down after scheduled time, then it goes back to a normal state. However, if not, it is formed that an error occurrs. - Lsu Error When the error occurrs, it does not indicate an error. It accomplishes printing only again. If even time when it judges an error, it informs an error. Concretely speaking, if the LReady or Hsync error happens, the paper exits out beforehand. And then the engine mode is changed to recovery mode and the engine informs the main system of the engine mode. And the engine checks the LSU error in itself. If the error doesn’t happen, the printing job will be proceeding.
3.3.4 Engine Interface Module Design
Engine Interface Module communicates with the main system in order to receive the command from main system and to transmit the present engine status for the requested status. There are two sub functions. One is a function to receive the command from the main system. The other is a function that informs the main system of the current engine status for the requested item.
3.3.5 Engine Sensing & Unit Control Module Design
Engine Sensing & Unit Control Module consists of 4 sub-functions. The first function is an ADC function that reads the ADC values of the temperature of the fixing unit. The second one is a fixing unit control function. This function regulates the temperature of the fixing unit within a fixed range to be set by the paper type and the number of pages to print out. The third one is a fan control function that controls the fan unit. And the last one sets the flag that describes the present status of each sensor.
